The Federal Punch 9mm 124gr jacketed hollow point ammunition delivers consistent expansion and penetration through barriers that stop traditional hollow points. This personal defense load features Federal's barrier-blind technology, engineered to maintain effectiveness when encountering clothing, wallboard, and other common obstacles.
What Makes This Different
Unlike conventional hollow points that can clog when passing through fabric or drywall, Federal Punch ammunition maintains its expansion characteristics through these barriers. The 124-grain bullet weight provides optimal balance between velocity and momentum in 9mm platforms. Independent ballistic testing shows consistent expansion between 0.50-0.65 inches across various barrier materials, while standard hollow points often fail to expand under similar conditions.
Key Features
- Barrier-blind jacketed hollow point design maintains expansion through common obstacles
- 124-grain bullet weight optimized for 9mm ballistics and reduced recoil
- Nickel-plated brass cases resist corrosion and enhance feeding reliability
- Low-flash propellant reduces muzzle signature in low-light conditions
- Consistent 1,150 fps muzzle velocity from 4-inch test barrel
- 50-round box packaging for training and carry rotation
- Compatible with all 9mm Luger chambered firearms
This ammunition performs reliably in compact carry pistols and full-size duty weapons alike. The moderate pressure loading functions in both striker-fired and traditional double-action platforms without causing excessive wear. Accuracy testing shows sub-2-inch groups at 25 yards from quality barrels, making it suitable for both defensive applications and training purposes.
